Merry Christmas, Kathie Whipple!

And the first of the holiday photos has arrived! Today's comes from from Kathie Whipple, with whom I had the great pleasure of acting alongside in Octette last March. (You remember Kathie. She was the salty sister Connie - the one who had the unenviable task of walking hunched over like a gorilla during the entire second act...)

Lovely to hear from you, lady. You get style points for both the pet angle and the Santa hat.

Yoshi Claus is coming to town...

Interested in seeing Kathie onstage? (I know I always am.) You can catch her this February in Appleseed's upcoming drama The Left Hand Singing, directed by Linda Lance.

Want more holiday photos of CNY theater-folk? Well, send them in, people. You know how to reach me.
